Multivariate logistic regression models are mostly used to identify risk factors associated withthe occurrence of particular disease processes. Logistic regression models have also been used as tools for veterinary diagnosis by providing the probability of a particular disease in an individual an...

A study of the epidemiologic states of theileriosis in a range of smallholder dairy farms in Kenya
Tick-borne diseases (TBDs) caused by different protozoan and rickettsial species occur all over the world but their greatest impact is in the tropics and subtropics where they cause huge losses mainly in improved breeds of cattle. The economically important tick-transmitted diseases of cattle are...

Monitoring the efficacy of immunisation against theileriosis caused by Theileria parva
This paper first discusses the need to assess the economic impact of livestock diseases and their control. It then examines the conceptual framework for assessing the economic impact of diseases and their control. This is followed by a brief explanation of some of the economic concepts behind the...

Assessing economic impact of tick-borne diseases and their control: the case of theileriosis immunisation
Two Theileria species of cattle, T. parva and T. annulata are amongst the most highly pathogenic protozoan parasites of mammals, causing over 90 percent mortality in susceptible Bos taurus types of cattle. This paper discusses and presents the losses due to East Coast Fever and theileriosis, main...

The role of the International Laboratory for Research on Animal Diseases in the development of control measures for theileriosis and trypanosomiasis
This paper highlights the growing divergence between the supply and demand for livestock products in sub-Saharan Africa with special reference to the Preferential Trade Area (PTA) region. Livestock diseases, especially theileriosis and trypanosomiasis, among other constraints, are identified as a...
